Some of the goals that I set for myself in my other class is too have deep meaningful prayer, and to delve deeper into the Scriptures. For the ultimate goal I've been able to have a oneness with God and ultimately this comes by balance in my life. President at elder Ballard's talk hit home with a lot of my direction that I wanted to go in. Prayer is the is one of the essential components in the goal setting, because of my priorities are not correct and my goals will be off as well. Prayer will help me to determine the correct course of action and the correct goals to strive for. Heavenly Father wants to hear from us and wants to be included in our decision making, and I've always felt like I more or less float through life. I make my decisions based upon how I feel, and sometimes im over analytical so I flow do a lot of research before buying something to know what I should be strike that you know which is the best item for me to buy. I approach some big issues in life the same way I weigh out the pros and cons of my choices and then also go with the one that has the best got decision. Often I'll pray about these choices in directions, but for me I've already done a lot of back ground working and base research and will usually go with my decisions. Unless I get some bolt of lightning in my prayer saying that my logical decision is not the correct decision I will usually go with my choice very rarely have I had gone to this process a and then received and opposite opposite it answer in my prayers. have sometimes wondered if this means that my prayers are being answered according to my already preconceived ideas on what the best outcome would be, or that is the weight of the Spirit works with me. That I study doubt in my mind and then ask if it be right. Include scripture quote Particularly because of the situation that I am currently in, my mindset is education-based right now. My advice that I would give myself would be to continue on with my education early get it completed. I would also probably advise myself to not set a low goal but that I should keep working in my spare time to further my education. I have spent a lot of time in the past in independence teddy. Looking up in gainey knowledge and different things that interest me, I been able to builds many things and accomplishment things that I didn't have formal training on. But I was interested in something I would gain is much knowledge about it and then try for myself. As I work toward retirement the future advice that I would give myself that this point might be different from what i think it would be. For instance, I may find in 10 years that I should have done something completely different with my time that I am currently doing it. I look back at my life and even my education without a lot of regret. I have been able to serve in many different callings, serve in many different capacities, spend the majority of my time with my family. I am been able to watch my children grow and be an important part of their lives . if I had made a different career choice back in then would I have spent more time working, this is a rhetorical question and I really have no answer for.
